An album released in 1982 by Yoshio Karashima, who is famous as an astrologist in Japan and has a side as a musician alongside abstract painters and object writers.The first two songs on A-side that improvised sound of a desolate scene near the border between China and Mongolia who lived during the war obtained from reminiscence of his father's story, the other songs also sounded inspired by the sound of wind heard on the plains of China that they experienced during their adolescence.In modern style, sounds like New Age or Neo balearic. it was performed with the synthesizer at the core with such an image "The wind is the music itself, the wind is the music, the music is the wind," he said. A collection of sound sources that live with his sense of gentle but ”lonely” atmosphere. Amazing.
日本では占星術師として有名で抽象画家やオブジェ作家と並行して音楽家としての側面も持つ辛島宜夫が82年に発表したアルバム。父親の話の回想から得た戦時下に住んでいた中国とモンゴルの国境付近の荒涼とした情景を即興的に音作りにしたA面最初の2曲、他の曲も自らの思春期に体験した中国の平原で聴いた風の音から着想を得ているものをサウンド化したもの。現代風に言うとニューエイジやネオバリアリック風の曲調でシンセサイザーを軸に”風は音楽そのものである、風は音楽であり、音楽は風だ”とインサートにあるようにあらゆる情景が浮かんでくる優しくもどこか殺伐とした雰囲気も伝わってくる彼のセンスも同居した音源集。素晴らしいです。プライベートプレスでなかなか出てきません。
